“Ontario photographer Goldchain faced his past and was dispirited by what he saw: too many painful gaps, too few records of his Polish-Jewish family, many of whom perished in the Holocaust. Goldchain’s bridge to the past is a collection of self-portraits in which he poses as his ancestors, real and imagined. Each self-portrait doubles as a mirror for Goldchain to stare into and ask: Who am I?”
—Emil Sher, Globe and Mail
